Yumura Onsen is known for its abundant amount of hot water and its high temperature. A walking tour led by the owner of the ryokan Asanoya allows you to learn about the relationship between the people living in Yumura Onsen and the hot springs, as well as the unique lifestyle of living with the hot springs. Even Japanese people are surprised at how they use hot springs. In the boiling experience, you will boil eggs and vegetables and eat them just like the locals do. There may also be a luxurious experience of warming coffee in a hot spring.

Highlights

  • For the reason that the town is not crowded by tourists, it is very pleasant to walk around and enjoy the overall atmosphere.
  • While waiting for your eggs to boil, you can soak your feet in the nearby riverside foot bath.
  • Colorless and transparent, the slightly alkaline water (ph 7.29) is very gentles on your skin.
